Please have a look at http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/MailingListEtiquette
regarding information its worth providing when asking questions...

I suggest you check if you are automatically thawing frozen messages -
thats the auto_thaw option.

The other thing to do is to use exigrep on the log file with the exim
queue id of the message in question and see whats happening to it.
